TWO boys were spotted metres away from a railway track in Devon in what police described as an incident with “potentially tragic consequences”.
-
The incident took place on the railway line near Plympton at around 5.30pm on Sunday, July 6.
British Transport Police (BTP) attended the incident with paramedics and the fire service. An extensive search of the area was conducted, but no one was located.
CCTV footage showed two boys lying metres away from the track. The footage apparently showed them filming on their phones.
